And here is the scanned version that we have.
As a side note the George G. McMurtry Fox was just recently re-habbed and is now back out and about after 20 years. We also know the whereabouts of the Vandergrift #2 Fox but do not know about the Apollo # 2 Fox. Does anyone have some better photos of it or know where it might have gone?
Thanks and pictures attached

Axe, there were 2 separate photos taken at Highland Hose. The first was the station dedication in 1928. At that time they didn't have their fox yet. That one had tha Parnassus Fox. The second one was at Highland Hose, it had Highlands Fox. The Parnassus Fox was not in that one. Unfortunately, the Parnassus Fox was scrapped in 1954. There was nothing wrong with it. It was a shame. It was a nice looking rig.
